I went from a 3/8 to 1/2 inch suction hose and a larger diameter filter to act as a reservoir. That with a higher micron filter to increase suction flow and the fuel pump you cannot hear anymore at all. The pump is mounted with a rubber clamp to the frame before and after the suction setup improvement btw. hope this helps troubleshoot the noise out a bit

Thanks a lot for the insight. I will take a look at line sizing and my filter.
